There are several wipe methods available in Bandura:
Fill with pattern:
Specify custom patterns of any length up to 512 bytes. The
specified pattern will be written repetitively to the Target hard drive. If no pattern is
specified, the Bandura will write zero pattern (0000) to all sectors of the Target hard
drive.
To specify a custom pattern:
1.
Create a text file “Patterns.txt” using a PC
2.
In the file, write one pattern per line HEX codes (no spaces)
3.
Upload the file onto a USB flash device
4.
Plug the USB flash device into Bandura’s rear USB port
5.
Select the desired pattern in the menu.
This is the quickest wiping method.
Fill with LBA:
Fill each sector with the characters that represent its LBA (Logical
Block Address). This option is usually used for research purposes.
